Note: This is post is for writers like me, probably not worth your time to read otherwise.
World Building.
SO hard to do, but yet so important..
I never was a patient type for this sort of things, yet it is primordial to do in fiction.
My personal experience with that was in many ways a hot mess.
I don't predetermine things, well not completely.
But you see. I often create things on the go.
Which is not really a good way to plan things.
I sadly suffered from that mistake. Because I have many times done this.
It's fun I am not lying about that part, but the priority of making a good story
is to focus on the consequences of that fact.
My stories are all about that.
I just wish I wasn't so impatient to write everything
and was able to take time to note things and make plans
that are way better than what I put on newgrounds.
So, to create a world you need to know which genre is about the story.
What is your target audience and all that boring parts.
For me, it's just too much effort.
And that's why I usually do random things.
Well not anymore.
Since I decided to change that. I will read about history books and look at maps of the world.
Check what can inspire me and etc.
I also will read about magic, dark ritual stuff and other what is considered taboo.
For my new story of course.
